Json get should return option instead of null #158

Open angeloh opened 10 years ago

This is my json looks like:

{"address":"eb.local2","body":{"status":"ok","result":{"memberId":"memberid1","sys_pres":"connected","presence":"Online"}}}

It is really difficult to test a value in a deeper level.

if (json.getObject("body") != null && json.getObject("body").getObject("result") != null &&
                json.getObject("body").getObject("result").getString("presence") != null &&                json.getObject("body").getObject("result").getString("presence").equals("Online"))
dosomething()

Yeah, our current JSON API is essentially the same as the Java API. This is something we'll be looking to rectify for 2.0. Rather coming up with a new JSON API within Scala, we might look into existing functional libraries to handle JSON, such as Argonaut (http://argonaut.io/).
